Former WWE Superstar Elias made his TNA Wrestling debut last night on Impact, coming out to save TNA champion Joe Hendry from an attack from The Colons.
Now known as Elijah, he came out just in time before Primo and Epico got in the ring to double-team Hendry, who was giving a concert.
He said his name is Elijah as fans chanted “holy shit” and said that he joined TNA Wrestling.
“If you wanna walk with me, or you believe in Joe Hendry…you’re in luck,” he said, as fans started chanting “Oh, walk with Elijah,” to the tune of White Stripes’ Seven Nation Army. Elijah then started playing the tune with his guitar to an even bigger pop from the crowd who acknowledged with “This is awesome.”
Elijah eventually teamed with Hendry in the main event to beat The Colons.
Elijah is said to have signed a deal with TNA Wrestling just weeks after there were reports that he was joining AEW/ROH.
